Abstract

The present invention provides a composition for moisture curing hot melt adhesives which is superior in both moisture curing reactivity after adhesion and thermal stability during use. The composition of said moisture curing hot melt adhesives is characterized by containing a urethane prepolymer having one or more terminal isocyanate groups and a compound having the structure represented by the following formula (I):

(see formula I) (where X, Y and Z in the formula (I) are alkyl groups or groups represented by the following formula (II), and at least one of X, Y and Z is a group represented by the formula (II):

(see formula II) n in the formula (II) is an integer from 1 through 10, and R1 and R2 are hydrogen or alkyl groups.)

Description

The present invention relates generally to compositions for moisture curing hot melt adhesives using a urethane prepolymer. Said compositions for moisture curing hot melt adhesives exhibit superior thermal stability and superior initial adhesive strength.
Moisture curing hot melt adhesives composed of a urethane prepolymer having an isocyanate group in its end have been conventionally known. For example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open Gazette No. 189486/1988 and Japanese Patent Laid-Open Gazette No. 284577/1989 disclose moisture curing hot melt adhesives using a urethane prepolymer which are superior in intial adhesive strength.
Furthermore, an organic metal compound such as dibutyl tin dilaurate or tin octate or a tertiary amine compound such as triethylamine or triethylenediamine has been added as a catalyst to known types of moisture curing hot melt adhesives.
The initial heat resistance of the above described moisture curing adhesives composed of the urethane prepolymer depends on the softening point, similar to the case of ordinary hot melt adhesives. Thus, an extensive time: period is required before the adhesives exhibit practical heat resistance with polymerization proceeding via moisture curing.
Consequently, an adherend must be subjected to aging for two to three days after adhesion. As a result, in the conventional adhesives disclosed in the above described prior art, the adherend must be aged for extensive time periods, so that the productivity of a bonding operation cannot be sufficiently increased. This is uneconomical.
If the above described catalyst composed of either an organic metal compound or a tertiary amine compound is added, the moisture curing characteristics of the adhesives can be enhanced, thereby allowing a shorter curing time period. However, if the catalyst composed of an organic metal compound or a tertiary amine compound is added, the thermal stability of the adhesives is significantly lowered, so that the adhesives may, in some cases, be gelled in a coating machine.

More specifically, for' conventional moisture curing hot melt adhesives composed of urethane prepolymer, both the curing speed aind the thermal stability cannot be made adequate. Thus, improvements have been required.
The present invention has been made to satisfy the above described requirements and accordingly provides compositions for moisture curing hot melt adhesives superior in reactivity with moisture, exhibiting sufficient thermal resistance within a short time after adhesion, and superior in thermal stability during use.
As a result of zealously examining moisture curing hot melt adhesives using a urethane prepolymer which satisfy the above described requirements, the inventors have found that these requirements can be satisfied if compounds having a particular structure are used as catalysts.
In accordance with a broad aspect of the present invention, there is provided a composition for moisture curing hot melt adhesives which is characterized by containing a urethane prepolymer having an isocyanate group in its end and a compound having a structure represented by the following formul<~ (I):
X _- _ N Z ... ( ... I
) Y

In the formula (I), X, Y and Z are alkyl groups or groups represented by the following formula (II), and at least one of X, Y and Z i:; a group represented by the following formula (II):
Ri --~- C H 2 ~-n N Q ... ... ( I I ) In the formula (II), n is an integer 'from 1 through 10, and R, and R2 are alkyl groups or hydrogen.
Furthermore, in accordance with another broad aspect of the present invention, there is provided a composition for moisture curing hot melt adhesives which is characterized by containing a urethane prepolymer having an isocyanate group in its end, a tackifying resin, and a compound having a structure represented by the foregoing formula (I).
In accordance with still another broad aspect of the present invention, there is provided a composition for moisture curing hot melt adhesives which is characterized by containing a urethane prepolymer having isocyanate group in its end, a tackifying resin, a thermoplastic polymer, and a compound having a structure represented by the foregoing formula (I).
The components of the composition for moisture curing hot melt adhesives according to the present invention are described in dletail below, Urethane prepolymer The urethane prepolymer used in the present invention is a urethane prepolymer having an isocyanate group in its end which is obtained by the addition reaction of polyols having a hydroxyl group or groups in its molecular end and polyisocyanates having an isocyanate group or groups in its molecular end.
As the above described polyols, conventionally known polyols generally used for the manufacture of polyurethane can be used. Examples of such polyols include polyester polyols, polyether polyols, polyalkylene polyols, and polycarbonate polyols.
More specifically, examples of the above described polyester polyols include polyester polyols obtained by the reaction of terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, 1,5-naphthalic acid, 2,6-naphthalic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, picric acid, suberic acid, azelaic acid, sebacic acid, or dicarboxylic acids such as decamethylene dicarboxylic acid or dodecamethylene dicarboxylic acid and diols such as ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, 1,3-propanediol, 1,4-butanediol, neopentyl glycol, 1,5-pentanediol, 1,6-hexanediol, diethylene glycol or cyclohexanediol; and poly-s-caprolactone-polyol obtained by ring-opening polymerization of e-caprolactam. E;Kamples of the above described polyether polyols include polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, and polytetramethylene glycol.
Examples of the above described polyalkylene polyol include polybutadiene polyol, polybutadiene polyol hydride, and polyisoprene polyol hydride. Examples of the above described polycarbonate polyols include polyhexamethylene~ carbonate polyol, and polycyclohexane dimethylene carbonate polyol. The above described types of polyols may be used alone or in combination.
Furthermore, examples of the above described polyisocyanate include tolylene diisocyanate, diphenylmethane diisocyanate, liquid denatured matter of diphenylmethane diisocyanate, hexamethylene diisocyanate, xylylene diisocyanate, cyclohexane phenylene diisocyanate, and naphthalene-1, 5-dii.socyanate.
Compounds having a structure represented by formula (I) In the present invention, a compound having a structure represented by the formula (I) is added as a catalyst to the above described urethane prepolymer having one or more terminal isocyanate groups. This compound is a tertiary amine catalyst, as apparent from the above described formula (I). The use of thss catalyst makes it possible to obtain properties which are not obtained when the conventional catalyst is used. More specifically, both the moisture curing reactivity and the thermal stability are significantly enhanced by using the aforementioned catalyst.
Examples of the compound having the structure represented by the formula (I) include bis(2-(2,6-dimethyl-4-morpholino) ethyl) ~- (2-(4-morpholino) ethyl) amine, bis(2-(2,6-dimethyl-4-morpholino) ethyl) - (2-(2,6-diethyl-4-morpholino) ethyl) amine, tris(2-(4-morpholino) ethyl) amine, tris(2-(4-morpholino) propyl) amine, tris(2-(4-morpholino) butyl) amine, tris(2-(2,6-dimethyl-4-morpholino) ethyl) amine, tris(2-(2,6-diethyl-4-morpholino) ethyl) amine, tris(2-(2-methyl-4-morpholino) ethyl) amine or tris(2-(2-ethyl-4-morpholino) ethyl) amine.
The amount of addition of the compound having the structure represented by the formula (I) is in the range of 0.01 to 5 parts by weight and preferably, in the range of 0.1 to 2 parts by weight as the amount converted into the structure represented by the formula (I) per 100 parts by weight of a urethane prepolymer. The effect of accelerating the moisture curing reaction is not sufficiently obtained if the amount of addition is less than 0.01 parts by weight, while the thermal stability is lowered so that the adhesives may, in some cases, be gelled in the use if the amount of addition exceeds 5 parts by weight, which is not preferable.
The range of the amount of addition of the compound having the structure represented by the above described formula (I) varies depending on the type of polyol used for obtaining a urethane prepolymer. More specifically, it is preferable that the amount of addition of the compound having the structure reprE~sented by the above described formula (I) is in the range of 0.01 to 2 parts by weight per' 100 parts by weight of a urethane prepolymer which is obtained using, for example, polyester polyol, while being in the range of 0.05 to 5 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of a urethane prepolymerwhich is obtained using, for example, polyalkylene polyol.
In either case, the amount of addition of the compound having the structure represented by the formula (I) is determined to a suitable range by experiments depending on the type of a urethane prepolymer used.
Tackifyin4 resin As described above, in accordance with another broad aspect of the present invention, a tackifying resin is contained in addition to the above described urethane prepolymer and compound having the structure represented by the formula (I).
The above described tackifying resin gives superior initial adhesive properties to the moisture curing type hot melt adhesives according to the present invention in cooperation with other adhesive components. Examples of the tackifying resin usable include rosin type resin, terpene type resin, aliphatic petroleum resin, cycloaliphatic petroleum resin or aromatic petroleum resin and preferably, ones whose ring and ball softening point is 80 to 150°C.
The types of tackifying resins may be used alone or in combination.
The amount of the above described tackifying resin is in the range of 5 to 200 parts by weight and preferably, in the range of 10 to 100 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of a urethane prepolymer. The reason for this is 'that sufficient initial adhesive properties cannot be given to the composition for moisture curing type hot melt adhesives when the amount of the tackifying resin is less than 5 pacts by weight, while the adhesives become weak and particularly, are liable to be lacking in adhesive properties under a low temperature when it exceeds 200 parts by weight.
Thermoplastic polymer In accordance with still another aspect of the present invention, a thermoplastic polymer is contained in addition to the above described urethane prepolymer, a compound having the structure represented by the aforementioned formula (I), and tackifying resin.
The above described thermoplastic polymer gives superior initial adhesive properties and heat resistance to the composition for moisture curing hot melt adhesives according to the present invention in cooperation with other components.
Preferable examples of the above dE~scribed thermoplastic polymer include an A-(B-A)n block copolymer (where n is a number in the range of 1 to 50) or an A-B radial block copolymer when A is taken as a polystyrene block and B is taken as a rubber block. The above described A, that is, the polystyrene block contains a block unit containing polystyrene, poly a-methylstyrene and another similar aromatic monomer. In addition, B, that is, the rubber block may or may not be hydrogenated and contains isoprene, butadiene, another monomer capable of forming a rubbery polymer block, and a polymer manufactured from a repeated unit induced from their mixtures.
Specific examples of such an A-(B-A)n block copolymer or an A-B radial block copolymer include a styrene-butadiene-styrene copolymer (hereinafter abbreviated as SBS), a styrene-isoprene-styrene copolymer (SIS), and a styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene copolymer (SEBS).
In addition, other preferable examples of the above described thermoplastic polymer include a vinyl polymer containing an ethylene-vinyl monomer copolymer whose melt index is approximately 0.1 to 1000 and which contains approximately 10 to 40 % by weight of a vinyl monomer or a vinyl polymer which contains 20 to 50 % by weight of a vinyl monomer, 40 to 77 by weight of ethylene, and 3 to 20 % by weight of carbon monoxide. Examples of this type of vinyl polymer include an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (hereinafter abbreviated as EVA).
In addition, the above described vinyl monomer includes an acrylate monomer or a vinyl ester monomer of a carboxylic acid compound. Examples of the above described vinyl polymer containing an acrylate monomer as a vinyl monomer include but are not limited to an ethylene-acrylic ester copolymer or an ethylene-methacrylic acid copolymer.
Still other examples of the thermoplastic polymer used in the present invention include a polyolefin polymer such as atactic polypropylene (hereinafter abbreviated as APP) or an ethylene-a-olefin copolymer.
Meanwhile, the above described various types of thermoplastic polymers may be used alone or in combination.
The amount of the above described thermoplastic polymer is generally in the range of 10 to 100 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of a urethane prepolymer.
The reason for this is that flexible and sufficient initial adhesive properties (adhesive strength immediately after adhesion which is not dependent on moisture curing) cannot be given to the composition for moisture curing hot melt adhesives according to the present invention when the amount of the thermoplastic polymer is less than 10 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of a urethane prepolymer, while the adhesives cannot be applied unless the adhesives are heated to not less than 140°C, which significantly deteriorates the thermal stability of the adhesives because the melting viscosity of the adhesives is increased if the amount of the thermoplastic polymer exceeds 100 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of a urethane prepolymer.
Other additives Other additives, for example, waxes such as paraffin wax or microcrystalline wax, inorganic and organic fillers, various oils or coloring agents may be suitable added within the range in which an object of the present invention is achieved to the composition for moisture curing hot melt adhesives.
According to the present invention. the compound having the structure represented by the formula (I) is added as a catalyst to the urethane prepolymer having an isocyanate group in its end. Accordingly, both the moisture curing reactivity and the thermal stability in the use are effectively enhanced. Consequently, if the composition for adhesives according to the present invention is used, sufficient heat resistance and adhesive strength are achieved without aging an adherend for an extensive period of time.
Accordingly, even if the composition for moisture curing hot melt adhesives according to the present invention is used for applications in which heat resistance is required, adhesion is possible in a short time, thereby malking it possible to significantly increase the productivity of a bonding operation.
In a drawing which illustrates an apparatus used in testing the invention, Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a pentite steel plate used in a heat-resistant creep test at 80°C for compositions of moisture curing hot melt adhesives in examples and comparative examples.
The present invention will be explained through non-restrictive examples and comparative examples of the present invention.

The above described plate made of ABS resin is then bonded to a pentite steel plate having a shape and dimensions shown in Fig. 1. A bond sample is cured in an atmosphere with a temperature of 20°C and 65 percent relative humidity, the bond surtace is kept horizontal with the pentite steel plate on the bottom, a suspension load of 100 g is applied to the pentite steel plate, and heat-resistant creep at a temperature of 80°C under the load of 100 g is measured.
The curing time period required until cohesive failure does not occur in the adhesives is an index of moisture curing characteristics.
Furthermore, each of the compositions for moisture curing hot melt adhesives outlined in the examples and the comparative examples, is placed in a sealed aluminum cartridge and heated at a temperature of 130°C for eight hours. The rate of viscosity increase (%) is measured and the same is used as an index of thermal stability.

Comparative Example 5 A composition for moisture curing type hot melt adhesives is obtained in the same manner as outlined in example 8 except that the amount of catalyst is 6.0 parts by weight.

Evaluation of Examples 3 to 8 and comparative Examples 3 to 5 The evaluations of moisture curing property and thermal stability are carried out in the same manner as the examples 1 and 2 and the comparative examples 1 and 2 with respect to each S of the composition for moisture curing hot melt adhesives in the examples 3 to 8 and the comparative examples 3 to 5 obtained in the above described manner. The results of the evaluations are shown in tables 3 and 4. The symbols of evaluation in tables 3 and 4 are described in table 2.
As apparent from tables 3 and 4, the compositions for moisture curing hot melt adhesives in the examples 3 to 8 exhibit sufficiently superior moisture curing property and thermal stability.
By contrast, the compositions for moisture curing type hot melt adhesives in the comparative example 3-a and the comparative example 4 are significantly inferior in moisture curing property, while the compositions for moisture curing hot melt adhesives in the comparative example 3-b and the comparative example 5 are significantly inferior in thermal stability.
Meanwhile, in the compositions for moisture curing hot melt adhesives in the comparative examples 3-c and 3-d, the catalyst evaporates at the time of mixing adhesives, sa that the above described respective evaluatiions cannot be carried out.
